Accents etc. in Openoffice not working.

[Johann Spies <jspies@sun.ac.za>]

I have seen this on more than one system now and I don't know what is
causing it.  I have the following installed on Sarge:

ii  openoffice.org 1.1.0-2        high-quality office productivity suite
ii  openoffice.org 1.1.0-2        OpenOffice.org office suite binary files
ii  openoffice.org 1.1.0-2+1      Debian specific parts of OpenOffice.org
ii  openoffice.org 1.1+20030814-3 OpenOffice.org office suite help (English)
ii  openoffice.org 20030813-1     English (GB) hyphenation pattern f...
ii  openoffice.org 1.1.0-2        English US language package for ...

When I try to type "something" I cannot get Openoffice to produce the
".  In an xterm/rxvt/wterm (or emacs/vim) I can type "a to get ä and
""e"" to get "e" but when I try it in openoffice I get e and a
respectively. I can't produce text with quotes.

Regards
Johann
